Legend

Hall near the inn entrance. A sofa is available for dignitaries, adventurers, merchants and others who take advantage of the Golden Wind Pavilion, one of the finest lodgings in Exile, to talk briefly with visitors.

It was also there that Vihera, who spoke to Ray and Elaine as they entered the inn, was waiting.

I don't mind that in itself. Whether it was Ray or Elaine, it was already quite predictable that Vihella would ask.

But... the person next to that vihella was the problem.

No, this would not have been a problem if it had been Bühne, who is also naturally next to Vihera again.

But if it's not Büne next to Vihera now, it's not Bosque. It wasn't even Esetus or Nact, members of the blade of sound that had a lot to do with the Rays.

Is it about 180cm tall and about the same size as Vihella? He has dark hair and a sharp gaze at the Rays.

The moment he sees the person, Ray takes the Death Size out of Mystering, and Elaine pulls the connecting sword out of her sheath.

Two sudden actions attract the attention of other guests and innkeepers who were nearby.

A few guests head to their room just to say that they are sorry for the gradual spread of stirring and getting into trouble.

Or there was the appearance of a man of honor who deliberately stayed in order to see his troubles,

"... why are you here?

Ray throws words at a man with sharp eyes and dark hair while making sure he is slashed at death size at all times.

The dark-haired man who sees it also reaches for the sheath of his hips so that he can deal with Ray at any time without alarm.

The tension between Ray and Elaine increases further in their response, and if there is any trigger, there is no doubt that they can wage battle here, Vihella opens her mouth in such a situation.

"Wait.... Ray, please"

For Vihera, a rare, pleading voice.

Hearing the words, Ray frowns slightly.

Because I just thought I was sheltering above knowing who the person in front of me was.

Most likely, if it was Vihera who brought this person here, it would have been natural.

But make it Ray, make it Elaine, I had no idea why Vihella sheltered the brunette man.

Compared to what I saw before, my impression is very different.

Especially the brunette, who was stretched up to her back, was now cut with bass.

Even if someone knew the name of a man, it would be difficult to identify who the man was in that affair.

... Yes, unless you've met a man in person before, like Ray or Elaine.

It's only been a few months since I met the man in front of me. I couldn't have forgotten the face or the atmosphere.

"Flash"

Ray mouths a man's alias in his mouth small.

Were you whispering because you didn't want the word to be heard around you?

Even though it is an autonomous city, the fact that Exil belongs to the Kingdom of Mireana cannot be overridden. Because if it were known that within that kingdom of Mireana, among the generals of the Bestian Empire, there would undoubtedly be a great commotion, the Theorem Energy, also known by the alias Flash.

Or maybe I'll kill the man in front of me with this luck.

I guess it's only because I know what the man in front of me is capable of.

If you wave that arm freely on the battlefield, there will undoubtedly be great damage on the part of the Kingdom of Mireana. If that's the case, we're in our own hands right now... it's never strange to see someone who thinks so.

Follow those who must be Warcraft soldiers and use advanced magic items created by Alchemy to make massive transfers and ambush the enemy formation from behind.

He is also highly combative, as his alias flashes, and is never the only one with a head.

"Long time no see, since spring.... Whatever, I want to talk more about it. Even if I were you, I wouldn't be bothering Lady Vihella by rambling here."

Ray once again gives a surprise look to the words.

Because the words out of Theorem's mouth undoubtedly contained respect.

It is unusual for a general with an alias to utter against Vihera, who is only a one-time adventurer.

That's why Ray inadvertently turns his gaze to Vihella and asks.

"Vihera, what's your relationship with the man?

"... sorry, I can't talk to you in a place like this. I'd like to talk to you in Ray's room, if you can, if you don't mind?

I was a lost Vihera for a moment, but I guess you decided it was dangerous to mouth the reason here. That's what I'm proposing.

"Elaine, what do we do?

It was Ray questioning neighbor Elaine, but the intent was obvious when he saw that he was putting the plucked connecting sword back into his sheath.

"I don't mind.... Ray, can you ask?

"I don't mind if Elaine... okay?

To Ray, who asks again, Elaine answers with a nod.

If Elaine, who is also a nobleman of this kingdom of Mireana, temporarily tolerates the presence of Theorem, Ray is convinced to store the Death Size in Mystering.

Most of the spectacular tourists scatter with a look that seems unfortunate that the disturbance has subsided lightly.

Just a few people, the ones who recently took the room to the Golden Wind Pavilion, had their eyes open to the mysteries Ray had, but ignored that such a gaze was irrelevant, Ray turns his gaze toward the stairs.

"Then why don't you go to my room for now?... That's fine with you, too, huh?

Theorem nods silently to Ray, who asks with the meaning of confirmation.

Ray is small and amazed inside at how such a theorem looks.

Either way, Elaine, now known as the Princess General and feared in the Bestian Empire, is in front of Theorem, or Ray, who burned or slaughtered many of the leading forces of the Bestian Empire in the Spring War. It is undoubtedly true that that battle resulted in the whereabouts of the war, a resentment bone marrow if you try Theorem, which is also the general of the Bestian Empire.

(But when we set up the weapon, we acted reflexively, but that's all? You can see how vigilant you are over here, but there is no such thing as hostility.... What's going on? Although there seems to be no doubt that it has some connection with Vihera at all. I mean, Vihera is an associate of the Bestian Empire, or)

While I'm so convinced, I'm not uncomfortable in the rays. If you think of the free-flowing character of Vihella, you don't find it strange to come from the Bestian Empire to the kingdom of Mireana, which is also a long-standing enemy.

Especially if you're told you've come to a labyrinth city in search of a mighty enemy, you're convinced enough to be ridiculous to even suspect.

(Most likely, there will be a labyrinth city or so in the Bestian Empire... or a dungeon like it was near Gilm even without a labyrinth city, but I doubt I even came all the way to the kingdom of Mireana)

Walking around thinking that way, you eventually arrive in front of your room.

Ray opens the door and welcomes the three as they go.

"Sit down properly for now."

That's what I tell you as I gaze at the couch in the room.

Around the area where there are reception sets like sofas and tables in a personal room, it can be said that it is just a luxury inn used by nobles and big merchants.

Following Ray's words, Vihera and Elaine sit on the couch, but for some reason Theorem stands behind Vihera without having to sit on the couch.

It's like saying that you can't possibly take the same seat as Vihera.

While tilting his neck like that, he asks the innkeeper to provide him with cold fruit water for a number of people.

"Look, even if it's an unwelcome guest, it's a guest. Don't stand in a place like that. Sit down too."

"No, I don't mind here"

Sighed Ray goes on to say to Theorem, who just tells him there's no point in arguing.

"Fine, sit down. In me, you are still the enemy. With you standing like that, I'm not happy that you're in a position to move on to an attack at any time. If you can't sit down, stay out of your room for a while until you hear from Vihella."

"That's... no, but..."

I suppose you want to shy away from leaving Vihera on this occasion and leaving the room alone. Theorem turns his gaze to Vihera in a way that is stuck in words.

Speaking of that vihella, she takes Teolame's gaze and exhales a small sigh to open her tease mouth.

"Just sit down. I'm just an adventurer now. You don't have to worry about that much."

"... I understand"

Theorame sitting on the couch like reluctantly.

Put fruit water in front of each, where Ray opens his mouth again with his gaze toward Vihera.

"Well, I'm glad it's time for you to let me know how you two relate?

Although Vihera hesitated for a moment to Ray's words, she eventually exhales a small sigh and opens her tease as she gave up.

"Right. If you keep your mouth shut any longer, you don't seem to be fooling Ray, and you don't feel good....... VIHERA ESTI BESTIA. That's what I used to call it."

"... bestia?

Elaine next to Ray listens back to the words that came out of Vihera's words unexpectedly.

Only certain clans, even in the Bestian Empire, have the letter Bestia in their name. That is...

"Royalty, huh?"

Unexpectedly holding onto her forehead, Ray takes over after Elaine's words.

I thought he was someone with more than a certain identity from the state of Theorem, but I guess it was just unexpected that he was an imperial family.

"That's right. This is His Royal Highness the Second Princess of the Bestian Empire."

Theorem tells me so, but it was the person who waited for it.

"Wait a minute, please. Indeed, I was the second princess of the Bestian Empire. I'll admit that. But now I've abandoned my royal family. It's just an adventurer's vihella."

"Indeed His Royal Highness is..."

"That's tough. Vihera will do. I haven't said anything about Her Royal Highness."

It was Vihera waving her hand to tell her that it seemed troublesome, but Theorem waves her head small and opens her mouth.

"That's not going to happen. To summon those who are in the royal family..."

"Huh? Me, I still had a place in the royal family? All that rambling up and popping up, and I hadn't even heard from him since, so I just thought it was something he was expelled for dealing with death and missing persons."

Vihera asks unintentionally if it was unexpected in terms of her own situation.

"Yes. In the first place, Your Highness..."

"Vihera"

"Your Highness."

"Vihera"

I sandwiched my mouth in Theorem's words and repeated the act of correcting it about dozens of times, and eventually Theorem breaks if I don't keep talking about it all the time.

"Okay, well, at least with Master Vihella."

"... ma, fine. I wonder what you were talking about."

"Because His Majesty the Emperor thought that it was more powerful than Vihella to die like that. Besides... it's better to draw the blood of the royal family... and if you're as beautiful as Vihella, it's all about the country... no, it's nothing."

Teolame, who saw Vihera's mood go acceleratingly worse in the middle of the word, stops him from saying any more words.

As a royal woman, I marry a stranger for the sake of my country. That was nothing strange at all as common sense in this world.

Ning Ro, you can say that is the only and greatest duty you have as a princess.

It was decidedly unsavory to be pawned in a political marriage, especially for Vihera, who became aware of her love for Ray.

Vihera's intimidation drifts around her.

Nothing in particular has happened because it is Ray, Elaine and Theorem who are on this occasion with extraordinary strength, but if there were ordinary people here, they would have fled immediately.

That much intimidation was coming from Vihera.

But Ray just opens his mouth if we don't keep talking.

"Vihera, hold him down. Flashing in the first place... No, Theorem didn't ask you to marry him politically."

Stop in your mouth the flash and what you tried to do to your mouth to calm down Vihella and turn your gaze toward Theorem.

I guess Theorem took the meaning of that gaze firmly. Surprised by the relationship between Vihera and Ray, who are also empire princesses, he opens his mouth even as he patiently wants to exhale in his heart that things have become troublesome.

"Of course. Why I have come all the way to the Kingdom of Mireana at this time of year. … it is your brother, Vihella, to help rescue His Royal Highness the Third Prince Merclio."
